Generally, you need about 4 times as much fabric as the size you are making. But remember, you don't have to get backing or batting, since this is a quilt as you go kind of project. So, 3' x 3' is about 1,296 square inches, times 4 and using 42" width fabric that would come to about 124" of fabric. So 3.5 yards ought to do it, but I'd get a little more.
